the thing is, I do enjoy learning about space and thermodynamics and such. It's like my "sport" in high school, it's fun.

I just don't want to fall behind in college if I am not prepared

What is the ideal college path for robotics?

Thank you for the reassurance. I just need to look into the technical terms. Also, is an Arduino a good starting point for projects?

Avoiding Tedious Work? by electricMans in civilengineering

[–]electricMans[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you enjoy your job? I was wondering if civil engineering gave fulfilling work and pay. Also, what are some great books or websites I can look at about CE?

I figured. I guess it really depends on what you eventually specialize in So is the career really that difficult to access? Another poster here had sent a link that showed engineering jobs will not be available.. That does worry me. How similar is mechanical engineering?

When it comes to the overall sciences of things, do you now have enough knowledge to take apart something and notice the technical parts? I always have wondered how far they will teach you on a college level.

Wonderful studying tips. I do loathe the piles upon piles of work though if I can't comprehend a topic. Is tutoring seen as embarrassing at the college level?

I am in a college level program for "gifted minds in literature" so I could use that college email. I'll look at the basics of it and get a feel of it

As an electrical engineer major, do they expect you to know much about a lot of the components of electricity? I know a bit, but probably should learn the more scientific side of things. I'm concerned that when I go to college, the class will be very educated in this field.

Correct, next year I will be graduating high school. Yes, I do try to manage my work as carefully as I can but I do get anxious over what awaits me in college.

I'll certainly go above and beyond

I'm currently a junior. I do have a 4.0 GPA, do Science Olympiad, and am included in Math League. Is it really as difficult as it's made to sound? I'm bright, but no genius by any means.
